After Action Report

The Trail Blazers ran roughshod over the Magic 120-84. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Trail Blazers cashed in. The Trail Blazers are in a full-on tailspin; Magic's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Trail Blazers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Magic · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Magic · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Magic · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
